[PATCH] Fix route lifetime.
The route expiration time is stored in rt6i_expires in jiffies. The argument of rt6_route_add() for adding a route is not the expiration time in jiffies nor in clock_t, but the lifetime (or time left before expiration) in clock_t. Because of the confusion, we sometimes saw several strange errors (FAILs) in TAHI IPv6 Ready Logo Phase-2 Self Test. The symptoms were analyzed by Mitsuru Chinen <CHINEN@jp.ibm.com>.
